Gaiman Talks About Writing “Doctor Who”

May 26, 2010 By Mike Hickerson Leave a Comment

While we’ve still got half a dozen episodes left in series five, an episode from the upcoming series six of “Doctor Who” is creating a lot of excitement for fans.

It’s the long-awaited episode by author Neil Gaiman. Gaiman revealed the cover of his script over the weekend via Twitter but kept his fingers over the title.

Now Gaiman is talking about writing the episode.

“I don’t know what it’s like to be God – obviously,” he tells the BBC. “Until that very first moment when you get to sit down and type the words in your script: INTERIOR. TARDIS. Suddenly I got a very good idea of what it must feel like. I went: ‘I’m writing it now this scene in the TARDIS. I’m writing it!’ And that was amazing, it was wonderful.”

The photo was taken from a read through with producer Steven Moffat to tighten up the episode.

“It’s going to be shooting in August and we were going through it and figuring out ways that money could be saved and ways we could have some things happen faster,” Gaiman reveals.

But what is the episode about, you ask?

“It will be on television – and it’s in colour!” Gaiman says.

And that’s all he’ll tell us….
